THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
We have some black powder enthusiast among are ranks. We were basically trying to replicate a 20" Gov't profile.

To fire, the powder charge and bullet are loaded via a ramrod. Using a standard magazine with a single shot follower, an unloaded 5.56 case is loaded into the mag, inserted in magazine well and loaded just like a standard rifle.


Once the rifle is fired, the empty brass is ejected manually and then reloaded.



Here is a quick demo vid...

We tested it with 6 pellets and 2 bullets(and a very very long string) and it held together just fine. Now it is off to MP test.

Couldn't you pre-prime a magfull of the special cases, load a magazine, and have semi-auto black powder goodness?

I would like to see a .50 flintlock AR, and instead of an actual magazine, hollow out an AR magazine to hold the patches, balls, etc.

IIRC, they sold the one they had, and have no desire to make anymore.
As far as this one, I'm not really keen on the loaded case for the primer.
